Damage-driven strain localisation in networks of fibres: A computational homogenisation approach

Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Felipe Figueredo Rocha

In many applications, such as textiles, fibreglass, paper and several kinds of biological fibrous tissues, the main load-bearing constituents at the micro-scale are arranged as a fibre network. In these materials, rupture is usually driven by micro-mechani ...

Design, testing and characterization of innovative TiN–TiO2 surfaces inactivating bacteria under low intensity visible light

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Rosendo Sanjines

Ti was sputtered in a plasma chamber under a N2 atmosphere, depositing TiN films on polyester fibers. These films show a significant adsorption in the visible spectral region. A TiN layer 50 nm thick sputtered for 3 min under low intensity/actinic visible ...
